Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electric power construction, and in particular to a method for replacing and remotely debugging a DC circuit switch. Background Art

[0002] The DC system of the substation provides power for relay protection. A power outage in the DC system will cause the high-voltage equipment in operation to trip without protection. If a line fault occurs, the accident will expand, burn out the equipment and cause the upper-level substation to trip. To ensure power supply safety, for substations that have been put into operation, the DC system is always in an uninterrupted power supply state. If the DC system stops operating, the high-voltage equipment of the substation will also stop operating.

[0003] For operational substations, the typical method for remote commissioning of DC circuit breakers is to verify the DC switch position signal while the substation is operating and remotely close and open the DC switches during a power outage. A substation outage can cause a power outage in the supply area, impacting production and daily life within the area.

[0004] Currently, there are three main methods for replacing DC circuit breakers:

[0005] 1. The substation is out of power continuously, the high-voltage equipment is out of operation, and all DC panels are replaced;

[0006] 2. The substation is out of power twice. During the first outage, the transition power panel is used to replace all the loads of the DC panel. After the DC circuit switch is replaced, the second outage is carried out to remove the transition panel and restore the normal power supply of the DC panel.

[0007] 3. The substation is operated with multiple intermittent power outages. During the short period when the high-voltage equipment is out of operation, a small number of DC circuit switches are replaced each time. After multiple replacements, all DC circuit switches are replaced.

[0008] All three methods mentioned above require a power outage in the entire institute, which will cause a power outage in the power supply area and affect production and life in the power supply area. Summary of the Invention
